How DOES she do it?!

Ep 47: Harnessing Movement to Explore Emotion, with Nahid De Belgeonne

How DOES she do it?!

Show Notes

Is your nervous system feeling a little frayed? Do you trust and recognise your feelings? In today's episode I'm delving even deeper into the practice of Somatic Movement as a means to connect with our physical and emotional wellbeing.

And I'm delighted to welcome Nahid De Belgeonne, Somatic Movement Educator, breath and yoga teacher and author of 'Soothe – the book your nervous system has been longing for'. Using movement to process and regulate emotions is something that Nahid has practised intuitively throughout her life, and now she specialises in teaching people with burnout, chronic anxiety and trauma issues.

Nahid has lived such a varied life and achieved so much working across some very different business sectors, but Nahid discovered that working hard comes with its own challenges as she found herself floundering on the edges of burnout.

We cover a lot during this discussion including work culture, the need for self-reflection, searching for 'something else' in midlife, the complexities and simplicities of the nervous system and how to bring about change.

So, let's all just take a breath and prepare to get curious as we delve deeper into the body and mind…

Enjoy the show!
